Moral compass rendered inoperative by the electomagnet of massive stupidity
The trouble with the new techno-economic paradigm is that it is hard to avoid the urge to think or say 'oh well, x may have gone wrong but at least we haven't lost 700 billion dollars, needed a 50 billion pound government bail-out, bankrupted a small island in the North Atlantic etc. etc.'
How can anyone describe anything as a waste of money ever again ?!
